Brand guidelines

Our logo, colors, and type, with the files you'll need to use them.

Logo system

The Stepped Bridge is our mark. Use the two-tone logo on light backgrounds and the white version on dark backgrounds.

Horizontal logo

The primary logo for websites, documents, and partner materials.

One-color and clear-space files

Use one color for constrained production. Choose a clear-space file when a template makes placement difficult.

SVGs scale without losing detail. The wordmark SVGs use Figtree Bold; use the PNG if your software doesn't support the font. PNGs have transparent backgrounds, except for the roundel and the logo on a color field. Scale them down, never up.

Give the logo room

Keep the mark and name together in the supplied proportions. Leave clear space around the artwork so it stays distinct from nearby text and images.

The clear-space export includes the margin. Keep it intact.

Keep it clear

  • Keep the supplied colors, backgrounds, and clear space.
  • Choose white artwork for a dark, uncluttered surface.
  • Check that the name is readable at the final size. Use the small icon when it isn't.

Keep it consistent

  • Don't stretch, crop, rotate, or rearrange the artwork.
  • Don't retype the wordmark or substitute its typeface.
  • Don't add shadows, outlines, gradients, or glow.

Color palette

Deep teal carries the identity. Zinc neutrals and white give it space. Use the accent sparingly and keep text readable.

Use sentence case, left-aligned body copy, and a clear heading hierarchy. Avoid thin weights, tightly tracked headings, and decorative prelabels. The supplied logo wordmark uses Figtree Bold 700; don't recreate it as live text.
